There are 4 types of dissociation. Dissociation can involve a sense of detachment, and is considered a trauma response and a common symptom of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It can also be a symptom of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Additionally, many people assume all dissociation is part of the mental illness known as dissociative identity disorder (DID), but that is not the case.

In this video, Dr. Ramani and MedCircle host Kyle Kittleson walk through the 4 types of dissociation and how to spot them.
